ANY QUESTIONS?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How long does cremation take?
The cremation itself usually takes two to three hours, followed by a cooling and processing period. In Auckland, most crematoria make the ashes available for collection on the next business day after the cremation. Our team will contact you once they’re ready, and you can collect them at a time that suits you.
Can we attend the cremation?
Yes - some Auckland crematoria have viewing rooms where close family can be present as the casket is placed into the cremator. This is usually a short and private moment rather than a full service. Availability depends on the crematorium, so we’ll discuss this with you when making arrangements to ensure everything is handled according to your wishes.
When do we get the death certificate?
The death is registered on the day of cremation, and the official certificate is issued by Births, Deaths and Marriages. It usually takes about a week to be posted to us. Once we’ve received it and the account has been paid in full, the family can either collect the certificate from our office or have it posted out to their chosen address.
